Talk:Dragon Darts (move)

Pressure and Ice Face

Edited in the interactions of Pressure and Pressure stacking, and interaction with Eiscue's Ice Face. Testing conducted with a friend in two separate Linked Double Battles. Pressure stacks +1 PP usage with an extra opponent, removing 3 PP per single use in a doubles battle.

Eiscue's Ice Face will execute on the first shot, and Eiscue will take HP damage from the second shot, as tested in a Singles battle. It can be inferred that in a doubles battle, Dragon Darts will only shatter Eiscue's Ice Face, and Eiscue will not take damage. Tsareenie (talk) 04:28, 31 December 2019 (UTC)

Correction: Pressure was tested in a Linked Doubles Battle. Ice Face was tested in a Linked Singles Battle. Tried to edit my own talk thing and the system said that wasn't allowed, adding it here for posterity and clarity. Tsareenie (talk) 04:34, 31 December 2019 (UTC)

Regarding Ice Face, the specific question was weather Dragon Darts would be redirected away from it in a Double Battle. The article currently states that "If either the target or its ally would take no damage from Dragon Darts, both strikes are directed at the other Pokémon instead". Technically, Ice Face would prevent the Pokémon from taking damage, so the question is whether, if there is one Pokémon that has Ice Face or a substitute, and another that would take damage from Dragon Darts, will both hits be directed at the other Pokémon. --SnorlaxMonster 05:39, 31 December 2019 (UTC)

Origin?

I couldn't help but remembering Super Saiyan Gotenks's "Super Ghost Kamikaze Attack" the first time I saw this move. Are both based on some literature or folklore thing? Both seem related to ghosts. And, perhaps just coincidentally, to dragons, given "Dragon Ball". --Johans (talk) 02:20, 16 November 2021 (UTC)
